Not sure if they are entirely lead free but there are Zinc alloy bullet .22 RF intended for shooting galleries.
These predate any concerns over lead in the air so I don't think that was why these were developed.

There are several FMJ bullet designs that enclose the bullet base, some use a copper alloy plug others drawn the jacket from the base leaving an open meplat.
